Chapter 583: A Decision Against Her Ancestors
The moment Arthur saw his Key Stone light up, he realized—Lina's energy was overflowing; she needed to evolve!
"Give her the Mega Stones!"
Old Flame and his mate simultaneously threw their Mega Stones to Lina.
For a moment, Lina, engulfed in the Sacred Fire, was confused.
Which one should I use?
But the Sacred Fire seemed to have a mind of its own. Before Lina could choose, it activated one of the Mega Stones!
A blinding white light erupted from the flames.
Since the Sacred Fire burning on Lina was also white, the light rippled out like the flames themselves, spreading rapidly.
A second later, the flames and light all retracted, merging into Lina's body!
Evolution complete!
Lina flapped her wings and took to the air, then looked down to examine her drastically different new form, shaking her head in satisfaction.
She had evolved into the slender Mega Charizard Y.
This pleased her because she had always thought her mother's form was more beautiful.
However, this inevitably left Old Flame a bit disappointed.
He had hoped his daughter would inherit his mantle.
Especially knowing that Lina's fighting style had always been more like his. Ever since she started following Arthur, this girl had been speeding down the path of a violent dragon lady, unstoppable.
Mega Charizard Y was generally a special attacker, more adept at energy-based moves. This form had exceptional energy affinity, but its slender build suggested it wasn't suited for close-quarters combat.
This wasn't Old Flame's style.
But soon, Old Flame's disappointment vanished like smoke!
Because Lina thought for a moment, carefully sensing her condition, and suddenly reverted from her Mega form on her own.
Then, her body lit up with white light again!
"Huh? Is this—?"
Even the Legendaries were surprised this time.
"This Charizard seems unusual," mused Ho-Oh, who had given the Sacred Fire Feather.
Another second passed, and the white light retracted again.
And this time, a phenomenon that shocked everyone appeared—
Lina had evolved into Mega Charizard X!
All the Pokémon present had shocked cat faces, as if asking: Is that even possible?!
Only Little Eevee was jumping around happily.
Yay! Finally, I'm not the only one who can change forms!
Little Eevee felt like he had found a kindred spirit, hopping around excitedly until he jumped a bit too far and landed right on the little dragonfly's drooping tail.
Originally, the scoundrel dragonfly instinctively wanted to shake the brat off, but thinking that this was Leafeon's descendant, her heart softened in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, Little Eevee had scurried up her tail and back, reaching her shoulder and happily nuzzling her neck with his cheek.
The little dragonfly wanted to flap her wings and knock him off, but the fluff around Eevee's neck was soft and surprisingly comfortable.
After hesitating, she finally reached out a claw, pulled the little guy into her arms, patted his head, and started stroking his back like a cat.
Despite her reputation as a scoundrel who bullied the young of various tribes in the desert—the Tyrunt were so bullied they ran at the sight of her for a while, like she was a natural predator—
Since returning to Arthur's side, she had become increasingly indulgent towards Little Eevee and Little Lapras.
She had even looked after and guided Lina, who was currently enjoying the fruits of evolution.
Perhaps finding her master again had restored her emotional anchor, so she no longer needed pranks and teasing other Pokémon to fill the void in her heart.
Or maybe, after returning to Arthur, she naturally recalled the time two hundred years ago when she was a larva under the care of other partners.
Back then, she was the youngest sister in the team, cared for by all her seniors. Even the most unreliable Leafeon had fought to the death to protect her.
Now, in a flash, she was an adult, and it was her turn to take care of the new little brothers and sisters.
So at this moment, watching Lina flying up and down happily, breathing fire after gaining a second evolutionary form, the little dragonfly, who had earned a notorious reputation in the desert, made a decision that went against her usual style.
"Flyy, gon."
She spoke.
At the same time, she transmitted her thoughts to Arthur through the telepathic link—
She planned to give up the Meteorite Shard and let Lina have both treasures.
For a moment, Arthur and Old Flame's family were stunned.
Arthur had originally planned to give the Sacred Fire Feather to Lina and the Meteorite Shard to the little dragonfly.
Before evolving, Lina didn't have the Dragon type, and unlike Old Flame, she wasn't proficient in Dragon-type moves.
In contrast, the little dragonfly was very skilled; her Outrage was one of her most proficient moves.
"Roar, roar?" — Are you sure you don't want it?
Old Flame asked on behalf of his daughter.
In Old Flame's memory, he didn't recall the little dragonfly being such a yielding girl.
Two hundred years ago, as the youngest member of the team, growing up under everyone's care and possessing exceptional talent, she was inevitably a bit willful and spoiled.
In Old Flame's memory, apart from Old Tyranitar, whom she admired most, and the master who could silence her with a glare, she liked the other partners but still played pranks and stole food occasionally.
Perhaps her scoundrel nature, causing trouble in the region, had already begun to show back then.
Unexpectedly, after two hundred years, the little dragonfly had become so yielding and caring?
If they could hear Old Flame's thoughts, the Seven Chieftains of the desert would probably feel very confused...
The Krookodile Chieftain, who had recently been swindled out of fifty strips of dried meat, would be the first to raise a middle finger.
At this moment, even the little dragonfly felt this decision was a bit unlike her.
She turned her head away, flicked her tail, and decided to blame it on the Little Eevee in her arms.
That's right, it's all because this little guy melted my heart that I made this decision against my ancestors.
"Flyy, gon!" — If you want to thank someone, thank this little guy!
Little Eevee, who was lifted up by her, looked confused.
Eh?
Little Eevee tilted his head—What does this have to do with me?
But Old Flame's family seems very happy. Can Sister Lina stabilize her form like me now?
Happy~
After figuring it out, Little Eevee wagged his tail contentedly, barking twice, then was pulled back by the little dragonfly to rub cheeks again.
Although giving up treasures isn't my style, the cub is cute, so forget it, I won't fuss with you.
The little dragonfly wagged her tail too.
Old Flame, his mate, and Lina solemnly expressed their thanks.
Seeing his Pokémon had no objections, Arthur naturally chose not to intervene in the distribution of treasures.
So immediately, the Meteorite Shard was also given to Lina.
And this time, she accepted the dragon scale in her Mega Charizard X form!
